I was surprised to see this thread. We're admitting it exists now? I still have a DVD around here somewhere, I found both it and the DEEN FSN hard to follow. Like there was an episode missing somewhere that would've explained what the hell I missed?
I think the Saber route skip only happened because we had something with significative Saber focus before, which is Zero. Tsukihime had nothing of the sort.
Not a remake of the anime, but an anime of the remake.
I think it's possible, patterns and stuff do leave me dreaming high, but first let's enjoy the remake and see what its success entails.

If the remake ever gets an anime it'll definitely be Arcueid.
But I'll be perfectly fine if they include a Tea Ceremony.

The odds they pull an UBW and adapt Ciel's route instead?
^ I could see them pulling something closer to the manga adaptation really.

That could work, what with that Last Episode-esque ending and all. But the addition of new DA(?) in the remake might change some plot points.
They originally wanted a anime original plot for FSN, and when it came time for Extra it was also anime original plot.
What if the Remake is just the 5 heroines, and when we do get a anime, its Satsuki route, fufilling that Plus Disc promise of putting out Satsuki route one way or another.
